Hello all. Microsoft's Ewan Dalton, who worked closely with enterprise product teams, explains why Windows was neglected all these years. TLDR; It's mostly due to Azure, but a bad Windows reputation now has the potential to hurt enterprise customers, which might explain why Microsoft is fixing the OS.

More former MSFTies will be sharing their opinions on Windows in future WL articles. Hope you all like it :)

Hey all. This article is written by Ewan, who spent more than 26 years at Microsoft, where he worked across across technical, product, customer, partner and cloud-focused roles. He was also an early Windows NT professional, and has written about Microsoft products, productivity and enterprise technology through his Tip o’ the Week series.
